Getting Out and About

          No one will come get you. If youre not out visibly in circulation, youre like the brilliant manuscript that lies moldering in a desk drawer. Professional organizations always seek visitors. (Yes, invest in the lunch fee.) Swallow that unjustified shame and let your Linkedin and social friends know that you are in the market. A non-addictive dose of job-search meetings helps. The ideal setting is one where business people are meeting not as employers, but for some other purpose. Trade conferences and exhibit halls are a great way to catch an owner or executive with a an unexpected employment proposition.   Such places are many.
